Okay what exactly does this mean?

So it’s only 71% accurate 5 days before your missed period, 94% accurate 4days before your missed period…..day of missed period greater than 99% accurate. Xx
@Rosey okay then so usually it should be pretty accurate like the day after your missed period?
@Rosey like do you think it matters when u take it, 1 day after ur missed period vs 1 week after ur missed period?
Oh most definitely, read the pamphlet but I’m sure you can test any time of the day after the day of your missed period, you don’t need the first wee of the day! Xx
If you’re pregnant it should come up pregnant from the day of your missed period, but if you still feel pregnant and it says negative, wait a day or two and retest. Sometimes it takes the HCG levels a little longer than usual to show up in your wee enough for the test to detect! Xx
@Rosey thanks!!
It can detect pregnancy five days before your missed period. However it’s most accurate the closer you get to your period being missed. So waiting until you miss your period by at least one day will give you 99% accuracy.
The percentages before your missed period are for how many women who are pregnant that tested positive that many days before. Basically if your HCG ramps up faster you’ll be able to test positive sooner than if it ramps up slower.
It’s why at 9/10 days before my missed period even with a strong positive I tested every other day until after the missed period date
It means it's less accurate days before your periods due
